Re: [MSAccessProfessionals] Backend issues

After all databases are closed, and I have one person open the  FE database a locking file shows up for the BE file.  The database open correctly.

When a second person attempts to open the FE database (and fails) it appears as if the locking file disappears.

When the second person tries to open the FE database again, it still fails.

I am now looking at BE file and there is no locking file showing.

Hi Bill,

 

Do you see the locking file in the folder containing the backend database file? Can all users create and delete files in the backend folder?

 

Regards,

Duane

A strange thing happened this morning.

 

I have Windows 11 on 3 computers that all run Office 365 Access.

I have a Front end Access database running on all three computers and they all link to the one Backend database.  Never had a problem until this morning.  Now only one computer can access the backend database at a time.  Once it is opened on one computer, the other two can’t log in.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Bill
